Ah, I was just looking at a version of this boat-stripe shirt, yesterday. There is a leanness about this look that is so contemporary.

Everything is pulled together with outstanding accessories in the form of the aviators, the belt, the yellow bag, the ballet shoes, and that gorgeous scarf which is meant to look as though it was just a last-minute addition.

The hair is outstanding. Also, the fact that she is posed so confidently, and without that pidgeon-toe stance, makes me love this shot even more!

I like the outfit. She has a very strong jaw and chin- I would have opted for more feminine sunglass frames, but otherwise a good overall result. I also like the way the sun is behind her yet she appears well lit in the image. Jorge from West Palm Beach

We love the yellow bag, and the scarf. Spring colors after a drab winter.

I do like the scarf it i so original!! and her hair is so Tina Turner. I like this kind of down to earth relaxing style something that generally one does not see in the fashion magazines.

This is inspiration defined!!! I'm already on my way back to the wider leg, so I take this as a hint. Plus: I knew! that would need a yellow bag this summer--with the marine colours it looks so fresh! Very well done!

Sometimes when I look at your photos, they look so alive and I wish the person would start talking or moving. They look so interesting. I wonder... what does her voice sound like. How does she move- gracefully? I want to see how the clothes move on the models and how they move in them.

I love those pants. And the scarf. I hate those glasses... they make her look too masculine.

I love how the scarf and bag contrast to the blues of her outfit....and I LOVE her hair!!! Nice to see wider cut jeans as well.

Good color combination over all. The yellow POPS. She also looks like she has a private joke with the world going on.

I like this blue/white shirt and the length of her jeans!

I love everything about this outfit - the colors, prints, textures, the cuffed jeans. The yellow purse really tops it off!

A bit too boxy, I would like to see her neck under that scarf, which would elongate her more. And I'd prefer the pant legs rolled down, but to each her own! Good color combos though.

Fantastic!i do really like the combination of colours (red, blue an yellow)..they are my favourite ones and the lovely shirt reminds me of summer at the coast.i hope the nice weather will come to germany as soon as possible

She looks sort of crazy and sort of fantastic. Love what she's done with the jeans, the mix of patterns, and of course black and yellow always look great together. I bet she got all this at a thrift store.

i don't like the pants, but everything elso is great! a very inspiring look - I might try it :)

Stance, color accents, shoes, hair all work together to make this look stand out from conventional nautical navy.

This looks like something I could actually almost wear - except way more stylish (I would surely have the instinct to dull it down and contain the hair if I were trying to wear it). Bring on the inspiration! Let the bright touches shine! Let the hair be free!

great color palette. not a huge fan of the pants, but she is slender enough to pull off the pockets which can be difficult. overall, great look!

eventhough her hair is quite glorious, the look is so all-over-the place, that i think if her hair were pulled back really neatly, it would bring a new level of sophistication to it. right now it's competing to hard with the mis of prints and colors.

The scarf is great- I'm not so sure with this outfit though- don't you think the proportions on the top are a little heavy for the weight and width of her trouser jeans?

Perhaps just with a lighter fabric scarf? Maybe wrapped more loosely around the neck?

I like her outfit - very good transition between seasons and her outfit seems very appropriate for the weather of New York at this time of year. I especially like the color choice of her bag and scarf and the way it stands out against the rest of her outfit. She just seems very comfortable in what she wears. I do not particularly care for her glasses, however.

The lady knows how to dress for her day. Lets have more shots of this kind!

PS: I abhorre the ribbons on her shoes, but that's a minor point here.

I think she looks adorable and perfect for spring. (I'm a total sucker for striped tees.) Personally, I like to keep my flats bow-free and, as much as I love aviators, I might have chosen a different pair of shades for this look. In fact, her outfit looks so happy, I wish she'd have ripped off the shades and given you a big smile for this shot.

I agree with the person who thinks that more of her neck ought to show, but the scarf is pretty. I like it with the stripes, but not so much with the pants or sweater.

I love the bag, and the hair.

too cool for school! everything is so funky, i especially love her hair and yellow bag

This is the first scarf of this type that I actually like in the outfit. Terrifc colors, and the shoes with the loose pants are a great look. However I don't think those shades do her any justice.

interesting to think how this one could translate over to and inform men's style. the big buckle and the yellow bag have this interesting, gender-defying contrast.

oh sart, you've taken to posting unannotated images again, and after such vocal approval of your wordier posts, too...

i admit, its been a tumultuous time in between: we've had the makeover, the boots, the flip flops... so much controversy, but i miss the extra information that even a few words from you give us, be it the circumstances of the encounter, your take on the clothes, or some insight into the character of the model.

personally i'm mesmerised by his/her make up ( i don't think the issue of gender is necessarily resolved...) is her/his face painted gold?

I am a bit confused because everyone here likes it.For some reasons, I don´t know why--why??? I don´t like the whole outfit! May be I´m out of zeitgeist or whatever... but the turned up trousers look terrible. Sorry...Taste is a miracle...

Just because this girl is lean & has a strong jaw, I don't think it's fair to call her outfit androgynous (from a fashion standpoint). On a curvier girl, these same clothes would never pass as 'androgynous'. Then again, I could be wrong. Any thoughts, Sartorialist?

Oooo, OOoooo, she's just fun perfection! I enjoy the wide variety of fashion sense reflected on this site, but I think this is the first time I've seen a pic that is EXACTLY like something I would wear.

I like the idea but I think she could remove one or two elements, perhaps the scarf and the sunglasses or make the bag a bit smaller. The accesories are overpowering the concept of the outfit.

Is she a black woman with natural hair or a Caucasian with a good haircut and a perm? Either way, her hair is gorgeous, like a lion's mane. And I love the outfit: it summarizes the spring trends, at the same time being casual and comfortable with lots of individual style. I even don't mind the aviator sunglasses. I wish I could get a better look at the yellow bag.

And I agree with pretty kitty: it's so much better without the pigeon toe.

To celebpaparazzo: are you kidding? There is new content on this site almost every day! Anyway, it's a blog, not a daily newspaper.
